6. Warranty disclaimer.

Except for the representation that Registrar is an ICANN-approved domain name registrar, Registrar makes no representations or warranties of any kind whatsoever, expressed or implied, in connection with this Agreement or its Domain Name registration services.

7. Domain Name Deletion and Auto-renew Policy


Domain names are registered for fixed periods that are subject to renewal. If a customer has selected Registrar's "auto-renew" option for a domain name registration and has remitted funds (in the form of advance payment as consideration for the services of the Registrar) enough to pay the renewal fee, Registrar will attempt to automatically renew the domain name registration approximately 10 days prior to the expiration date of the domain name. In this case the advance amount, paid by the customer would be set off by the Registrar, partially or in whole as required by the context, to collect the renewal fee within the procedure of "auto-renew".

If a customer does not select "auto-renew" option for a domain name registration, Registrar will send two e-mails to the domain Registrant Contact and/or the agents acting on their behalf to alert them that their domain name registration services will expire on a certain date. If a customer does not renew the domain name registration by the expiration date, the domain name registration is subject to deletion at any time after that. Registrar provides a grace period that extends 35 days past the expiration date, to allow for the renewal of domain name registration services unless if advised by the Registrant that domain name is no more needed or if Registrant specifically selects the feature to let the domain expire with no reminders upon expiration date. During this grace period a customer can renew a domain name registration; however, a grace period is not guaranteed and can change or be eliminated at any time without notice. Consequently, every customer who desires to renew his/her domain name registration services should do so in advance of the expiration date to avoid any unintended domain name deletion.

If an expired domain name registration is not renewed during any grace period provided by Registrar, the domain name registration may be deleted. Registry Operators may provide registrars with the ability to "restore" a deleted domain name registration for a customer. Such a Redemption Grace Period (RGP) is not guaranteed and customers should renew their domain name registration services in advance of the domain name registration expiration date(s) to avoid deletion of domain name registration services. Currently, the Registry Operators provide an RGP for 30-45 days from the date of deletion. When Registrar provides a redemption service to a customer, a fee of US $160 is charged to restore and renew a domain name registration during the RGP. If the domain name registration is not redeemed by the expiration of the RGP, it is then placed on "Pending Delete" status for five additional days, after which time it is deleted and the domain name character string is once again available for registration.

Should the customer not renew his domain name registration with the Registrar during any applicable grace period, he agrees that unless he notifies the Registrar to the contrary the latter may, in his sole discretion, renew and transfer the domain name to a third party on his behalf (such a transaction is hereinafter referred to as a "Direct Transfer") , and the customer's failure to so notify the Registrar after the domain name expiration date shall constitute customer's consent to such a Direct Transfer. The customer acknowledges and agrees that the Direct Transfer process may be facilitated through a single Direct Transfer Customer, or through a brief auction involving multiple parties who are interested in customer's domain name, and that the customer will not receive any portion of the fees we or any of our vendors may receive through completing a Direct Transfer.

In the event that a domain name registration is the subject of a Uniform Domain Name Dispute Resolution Policy (UDRP) proceeding and expires or is deleted during the course of the dispute, the party that filed the UDRP proceeding has the option to renew or restore the domain name registration under the same commercial terms as the original customer. If the case ultimately is terminated or the arbitrator finds against the filing party, the name will be deleted within 35 days.

8. Dispute resolution policy.

Client agrees to be bound by the appropriate domain dispute resolution policy ("Dispute Policy") applicable to the Domain Name that Client has selected. The Dispute Policies are hereby incorporated and made a part of this Agreement by reference. Certain disputes, as specified in the applicable Dispute Policy, are subject to that Policy. The Dispute Policy may be modified at any time by the applicable Registry Administrator(s) and Client’s continued use of the Domain Name registered after any such Dispute Policy modification shall constitute Client’s acceptance of the modified Dispute Policy and this Agreement.


9. Amicable Resolution

9.1. If at any time any dispute would arise out of this Agreement including its conclusion, validity and/or implementation between the Parties (“Contractual dispute”), then either Party shall serve a written notice on the other Party, setting out the grounds for such contractual dispute.

9.2. The Parties record their intention to resolve any contractual dispute amicably but if they are unable to do so within 15 Business Days, either Party may refer the dispute to the relevant authority or to arbitration in accordance with the provisions of ICANN regulations and/or applicable law.

9.3. Failure by either Party to abide by the procedure of amicable settlement stated herein shall constitute a material breach of this Agreement.

10. Additional terms.


10.1. ICANN requires that this Agreement must be modified immediately to reflect any and all changes required by ICANN. Thus, this Agreement may be modified at any time to reflect changes in ICANN'S policies. Further, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, Client agrees, during the term of this Agreement, that Registrar may: (1) revise the terms and conditions of this Agreement; and/or (2) change part of the services provided under this Agreement at any time. Any such revision or change will be binding and effective immediately upon posting of the revised Agreement or change to the service(s) on Registrar's Web sites, or upon notification to Client by e-mail.

10.2. Except as otherwise set forth in the Dispute Policy with respect to disputes, this Agreement, this Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the Russian Federation except to the disputes regarding the formation and modification of the Agreement which should be governed by the laws of USA including but not limited to the Restatement (Second) of Contracts. Except as otherwise set forth in the Dispute Policy with respect to disputes, any action to enforce this Agreement or any matter relating to Client’s use of the Domain Name shall be brought exclusively in the competent court of the Russian Federation.


10.3. Client agrees that any notices required to be given under this Agreement by Registrar will be deemed to have been given if delivered in accordance with the contact information Client has provided.


10.4. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed as creating any agency, partnership, or other form of joint enterprise between the Parties.


10.5. The failure by Registrar to require performance of any provision hereof shall not affect the full right to require such performance at any time thereafter; nor shall the waiver by Registrar of a breach of any provision hereof be taken or held to be a waiver of the provision itself.


10.6. In the event that any provision of this Agreement shall be unenforceable or invalid under any applicable law or be so held by applicable court decision, such unenforceability or invalidity shall not render this Agreement unenforceable or invalid as a whole.


10.7. This Agreement, and the attachments and documents referenced herein, including but not limited to the Dispute Policy (as modified from time to time), constitute the complete and exclusive agreement between the Parties, and supersede and govern all prior proposals, agreements, or other communications.

10.8. Client agrees that prior to transferring ownership of his Domain name to another person (the "Transferee") the Client shall require the Transferee to agree, in writing to be bound by all the terms and conditions of this Agreement. If the Transferee fails to be bound in a reasonable fashion (as determined by us in our sole discretion) to the terms and conditions in this Agreement and to provide his prior written undertaking to that effect to the Registrar, any such transfer will be null and void and the Client would still be deemed to retain his registration of the Domain name within the Registrar as if no transfer of ownership occurred. The failure by the Client to require the Transferee to provide the undertaking to be bound by all the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall constitute the material breach of this Agreement and would entitle the Registrar to collect the penalties and seek the compensation of the damages from the Client.

10.9. This Agreement may be assigned by Registrar without Client’s consent. Client may not assign this Agreement (and the related Domain Name registration) without meeting the formal requirements, stated in cl. 9.8 of this Agreement.
